I'm sick of screwing !!!

[Chequered Flag Racing]

looking for a small Cordless Screwdriver with hex drives / sockets / phillips etc (not large cordless drills)

seen a few in use now and thinking about getting one

must have metric and imperial hex drives in the kit

which one do you use?

Ive just bought one, its the hitachi, green and black one.. fairly expensive at about £60 but really neat.. You can buy superb 'bits' with 1/4 fitting from schumacher in the eds tool range, they do imperial and metric..

Lee martin had one and he seemed to get on with it too..

[mark christopher]

Dremel do one its brilliant, i also have a top of the range Bosch one (Dremel are owned by Bosch)
Bosch one is either on or off, Dremel one is variable and you can lock the spindle. it also has a brake so from full speed to stop is instant

yes im sponsored by em but they are bloody good http://www.dremeleurope.com/specials...iver_en-gb.htm

same as james for me i bought a set of eds tools with the 1/4 drive hex to fit the driver, good and they have a longer shaft

Do people not find they strip more threads this way?

That would be my fear.

ive seen people using these, dont think theres enough torque in them to strip screws,

[Lee]

If they dont have the torque, i would have to check each one with a driver after it stopped just to make sure its tight. Sort of takes the point of having one away for me

[bigred5765]

nope you can lock it, and then you can wrench on them till you strip the screw

[Chrislong]

Wrench on them, Showtime style? thats how he rolled last Saturday.

Would cry if I forget to take it racing! Truggys have long screws !!!

Lasts ages quick to charge and has torque control !

I bought a bit set but as we only use a few 2 2.5 3.0 philips flat !!! It might be worth trying to find a good set see if snapon do any ??

the dremels down fall is no torque control, bosch's down point is no variable speed control

like i said im sponsored bt dremel but bosch own dremel!!

When i had one if you used it on long screws the screws got very hot and damaged the threads in plastic........just something to consider...yes i to am bummed with screwing
